Body Image...stuff

So I wasn't able to attend this week of beginnings but considering the topic, I think I can share my opinion. I think that everyone struggles with body image and although I know that we are made in the image of God, we have so many things that forces us to stray away from that. I highly doubt that there is anyone who has looked in the mirror everyday of their life and loved every single part of themselves. And if you have, good for you! The reality is that our society thrives on people who are "attractive" and whether we like it or not, it is often what attracts us to potential boyfriends/girlfriends or spouses. I wish that it wasn't like that but I think that in order for that to change, we have to allow ourselves to search deeper. Might take a long time. Anyway, that's my quick thought.
